I didn't read this entire thread. I tried but couldn't do it. I think I am the oldest person here at 43.

Don't think twice about it. I'm close behind you since I'm going to be 41 in about 5 1/2 weeks. Not to mention there are other here close to me in age. You can thank the ESB and ANH coming out in the 70's and 80's for that.

Re: How old are you?

Nothing wrong with still playing games and collecting toys, no matter how old you are. It's good to keep some part of that around all the time or you might get too old and forget what it's like to have fun and enjoy stuff.

Re: How old are you?

We had an Atari 2600, I didn't play much when I was young. My children have had about every console out there (spoiled). I would play with them when they asked, but was never very good or interested. I got hooked when my son got Halo 2. I watched him play and got interested in the storyline, I've been playing ever since. I've had my own xbox 360 for a while now, me and my son are currently playing ODST. Gears is my favorite. All kids love me because I will play video games with them. I don't understand why their parents don't play with them. That's how we spend time together at our house. Just about every Saturday me, my husband, my son and my daughter play Left4Dead. It's a hoot and we enjoy our time together.

I still have an Atari 2600 in working order. My wife and I play it fairly often, to boot. Been a bit of an Atari drought the last few weeks.. according to my log I haven't played it in 17 whole days!

Re: How old are you?

I wish my old NES still worked, but I got all our old games on the Virtual Console (plus more) so whatever. Man am I jealous though. I wish I could've ever gotten my parents to play video games with me! I could only talk my dad into playing "Old Mario" (Super Mario Bros.) with me every once in a while, maybe an occasional bit of River City Ransom, but never "new Mario" (Super Mario Bros. 3). My mom would never play with me, the only game she could ever get into was River City Ransom.

Re: How old are you?

No worries, I'm still the oldest here. I was here back in 2002 with Miba when she was just a youngster (LOL), think she's old enough to buy me a beer now. Anyway, I'm past the half century marker, I'm like granddaddy Fett age.Howdy to Aaron, Mel, Janos (if he's still here), Bats, and any of the old crew that is still here. (*Glomps* Miba back from the intro posts, lol!)
